It is of course also possible that you update the other entries in the sqlite database of qgis. Ideal would be a volunteer that acts as a maintainer of srs.db and updates it in regular periods.

Other examples : WGS72 (EPSG 4322) ---------------- The QGIS database contains : +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS72 +no_defs It should be : +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS72 +towgs84=0,0,4.5,0,0,0.554,0.219 +no_defs (look at <http://proj.maptools.org/gen_parms.html#towgs84>) Guadeloupe 1948 (EPSG 4622) --------------------------- The QGIS database contains : +proj=longlat +ellps=intl +no_defs It should be : +proj=longlat +ellps=intl +towgs84=-472.29,-5.63,-304.12,0.4362,-0.8374,0.2563,1.8984 +no_defs Martinique 1938 (EPSG 4625) --------------------------- The QGIS database contains : +proj=longlat +ellps=intl +no_defs <> It should be : +proj=longlat +ellps=intl +towgs84=126.93,547.94,130.41,-2.7867,5.1612,-0.8584,13.8227 +no_defs Conclusion : Don't trust the EPSG database, allways check the parameters.
